Yeah right. Here is AZ all the CA transients say that they could not wait to get out, and finished their sentence with we are not like the people the live in the place we left. No pun intended using the word Left. Or they say we lived in northern cal and loved it and the people but it is getting bad there also so we are getting out.. Kind of make you think.
Tough way to go out. Mountain lion attack

Takes into consideration so much...nice broad stroke that misses alot of underlying economic, manpower, and societal issues. But sure keep telling yourself that.
Are you implying California is broke because they are successful?

Insane. They acted pretty good . It's always called strange and unusual when a lion attacks... I call it starving juveniles with no fear of humans. They've attacked people on bikes in Ca. a few times. It stimulates their attack response. I'm sure it was from behind.

Taken in L.A. No, not California, Lower Alabama. Birddog 68's key word in quote is supposedly. You wouldn't believe what the state wildlife biologists told me when I sent the pic to them. Basically, they're denying it's a large cat. Probably because they don't want to alarm the public, and some redneck shoot it. After his reply, I sent second pic of the long tail swooping to the ground. No other reply from him….nothing! Which is more alarming, the cat population, or policies which have state officials lying?
Not the first cat I've seen. Nearly all at night. One at 11 a.m. at 110 yards through 9x optic. Cat turned and looked at me, and without crouching, leaped from the middle of the dirt road slam out of sight. 15' feet at the very least. Very impressive beast!

Living in a bubble, makes me want to put on my 'Facts not Feelings' tee shirt on.
And these are JUST the 'verified' ones with physical injury or death. Really, how many people think about lions before they go on a hike. As a backpacker, i read stories all the time about how a backpack saved the hunter or hiker because the cat couldn't get to the neck. Not talking about a daypack here.
When you get a strange feeling and the hair stands up on your head and neck, heed the warning and look up! Unless it's a defensive attack, lions will almost always attack from above. And if they stalk you, I can promise you will never hear them.

It seems to me that humans are doing the encroaching, not the lions.

That is a more accurate way to state it. You are correct.

Now you shouldn't talk bad about Texans. My wife is from Texas.
I challenge you to go park in East St Louis, walk one mile and return. If you make it back, your vehicle won't be there! I'd much rather take a two mile walk in lion country.
Yes sir! We need to institute an electoral college type voting scheme at all levels... otherwise it's basically mob rule
